Best reason to work in water?

We know many of our customers take water service for granted, and so do we! We don’t even think about it because it’s always there when we need it. So one day I decided to count the times I interacted with my water service in a single day while working from home. The final tally? Fourty-six!…I can’t imagine another service that has this level of impact in people’s lives every single day, it’s pretty rewarding to be a small part of that.

Why did you volunteer for AWWA’s DMIC?

Diversity, Equity and Inclusion issues are personal to me and the DMIC has been integral to our industry’s approach to addressing them.

While serving as the Diversity Committee Chair of the Georgia Section of AWWA I tapped into the resources provided by the DMIC to provide a framework for our operations.

Hence, once I rolled off the local committee I jumped at the opportunity to serve on a national level and do the same for others. One thing I have learned through my experience in this area is that these types of issues never just work themselves out. It takes people like me putting in the work to move the needle and leave a lasting, positive impact.

Why did you volunteer for AWWA’s DMIC?

It’s important to the City of Seattle that Race and Social Justice principles be embedded into the work we do as part of our community. The City’s values include “equity, inclusion, learning, accountability, and stewardship.”

As part of a City department, Seattle Public Utilities seeks to embed these values into our work – and extend those values to the organizations we are affiliated with, including AWWA
